Architectural designer with over 10 years of experience designing and developing projects in Chile, supported by two academic years of architectural education in Canada. My background combines a deep understanding of architectural concepts and project objectives with the technical precision essential for successful construction.
One of my key strengths is proficiency in developing construction drawings and a solid grasp of construction detailing. These skills are central to my design process and have been enriched by my experience with two energy efficiency consulting firms in Chile, where I applied building science concepts for energy analysis, as well as by my current detailing role at a Canadian window wall company, which has sharpened my technical accuracy and expanded my construction knowledge.
